Your competitors have us-based ctos in their X follower lists. These are people interested in your space - they followed a competing account because the topic matters to them. That is a signal you can act on, if you know who they are. But X gives you no way to see another account's followers intelligently - just a long list of profile photos and short bios with no filtering.
CTOs make buying decisions for engineering teams, evaluate new tools and platforms, and shape the technical direction of their companies. They are among the most commercially valuable technical decision-makers to identify in any audience. For developer tool companies, B2B SaaS sales teams, and recruiters, knowing which CTOs are paying attention is a direct line to enterprise conversations.
Catch The Good Ones lets you track any public X account - including your competitors. We classify every new follower using customisable AI-powered filters you define in plain English. When us-based ctos follow your competitor, they appear on your dashboard - classified and ready to act on. You see who is interested in your space and can get in front of them. This is not surveillance - every follow is public data. We just make sure you do not miss the ones that matter.
The US dominates this space globally, and the people shaping it are active on X.

We smart-compose a personalised DM so you can send it in one click.

Describe who you are looking for in plain English. "Investors with 10K+ followers" or "Female tech founders in fintech". Our AI maps it to filters.
Run a sync
Syncs run automatically on your schedule (up to 4x/day on Pro). Every new follower is classified by job role, personality, skills, and more.
Explore your matches
Your dashboard shows only the people who match your criteria. Full profile, job title, personality traits, and the date they followed.
Export and act
Download upload-ready CSVs for tools like Apollo, Hunter, and Snov.io. DM people directly on X. Or connect via our API and Zapier.
Automate it
Schedule regular syncs and let the workflow run for you. Set up automated actions via Zapier or our API. Choose your notification preferences so you never miss a match.

See how it works for youFrequently asked questions
How does Catch The Good Ones identify CTOs in a follower list?
We classify every new follower using AI that analyses their bio, recent posts, and profile data against your customisable filter dimensions. CTOs are commonly identified by titles like CTO, Chief Technology Officer, VP Engineering, and Head of Engineering - but you define exactly what matters to you in plain English.
Can I filter for CTOs at specific types of companies?
Yes. Describe what you are looking for - for example, "CTOs at fintech companies with 50+ employees" or "technical leaders at Series B startups". Our AI maps your description to filter dimensions and surfaces only the profiles that match.
What if a CTO does not list their title in their bio?
Our classification uses multiple signals beyond bio text, including posting patterns and professional context. However, if someone has no public signals of their role, they may not be identified. The system catches clear signals but cannot detect what is not publicly shared.
Can I track any competitor's X account?
Yes. Catch The Good Ones works with any public X account. You do not need to own or have access to the account - just add the handle and we start classifying their followers against your custom filters.
Will my competitor know I am tracking their followers?
No. We only access publicly available data. There is no notification sent to the account you are tracking. It is the same information anyone could see by scrolling through their follower list - we just classify and surface the ctos automatically.
How do you identify US-based profiles?
Our AI analyses bio text, location references, and posting patterns. Profiles that reference US organisations, cities, or institutions are classified as US-based. This catches clear signals from bios and professional affiliations.
